IMPORTANCE A standardized functional measure that can be used across rehabilitation care settings in Taiwan is urgently needed. OBJECTIVE To generate a Mandarin version of the Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care (AM-PAC) "6-Clicks" for patients in acute care. https://www.selleckchem.com/EGFR(HER).html DESIGN Mixed-methods study with a cross-sectional design. SETTING Acute care wards of three teaching hospitals in Taiwan. PARTICIPANTS A sample of 231 neurological patients in acute care (62.3% female; mean age = 63.2 yr, standard deviation = 14.6). OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The 6-Clicks consist of three subscales Basic Mobility, Daily Activity, and Applied Cognition. They were translated into Mandarin, and their internal consistency, test-retest reliability, interrater reliability, and convergent validity were tested. RESULTS All subscales of the Mandarin version of the 6-Clicks showed good internal consistency (α = .97-.98). Test-retest and interrater reliabilities were excellent for all subscales (intraclass correlation coefficients &gt;.8). Convergent validity was supported by strong correlations of the Basic Mobility and Daily Activity subscales with the Barthel Index (r = .73 and .72, respectively) and between the Applied Cognition subscale and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (r = .82). CONCLUSION Our results provide psychometric evidence supporting the use of the Mandarin version of the 6-Clicks in acute care settings in Taiwan. WHAT THIS ARTICLE ADDS This study confirms the appropriateness of the use of the Mandarin version of the AM-PAC "6-Clicks" with patients in acute rehabilitation, making it a valuable addition to validated measures available for use by occupational therapists in Taiwan.

OBJECTIVE 3D printing technology applications may offer effective solutions to increase client participation in occupations. However, the use of these applications in occupational therapy practice requires attention to occupational therapy students' perception of the technology's usefulness and ease of use. Students' perception of technology potentially influences their perceptions of technology use in future practice. DESIGN This was an exploratory one-group, pretest-posttest, repeated-measures study over 12 wk to examine whether an assignment that integrated 3D printing improved students' perceptions of technology acceptance. The study used a modified questionnaire based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). SETTING Academic educational institution. PARTICIPANTS Second-year entry-level occupational therapy students (N = 58). RESULTS Paired t tests showed significant differences for all categories of the TAM questionnaire, including perceived usefulness (p = .001), perceived ease of use (p less then .001), attitude toward using (p = .014), and intention to use (p less then .001). CONCLUSION The experiential learning assignment increased students' acceptance of 3D printing technology; however, future studies should include an exploration of clients' acceptance and perception of technology. WHAT THIS ARTICLE ADDS This study provides evidence for the use of instructional strategies for "maker" technologies by educators when integrating experiential and interactive approaches.

The Participation and Sensory Environment Questionnaire-Home Scale (PSEQ-H) is a parent-report assessment designed to evaluate the impact of the sensory environment on young children's participation in home-based activities. OBJECTIVE To describe the psychometric evaluation of the PSEQ-H, including the tool's structural validity; item difficulty, discrimination, and bias; reliability; and construct validity. DESIGN Psychometric field study. SETTING Community. PARTICIPANTS Three hundred four parents of children ages 2-7 yr (167 parents of children with autism spectrum disorder). METHOD Parent-report PSEQ-H data were factor analyzed, calibrated using Item Response Theory, and evaluated for construct validity. RESULTS The final PSEQ-H is a reliable and valid 15-item parent-report measure of the sensory environment's impact on children's dressing, self-care, sleep, and social and play activities. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE The PSEQ-H can be used to plan and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions for reducing the impact of the sensory environment on children's participation in home-based tasks and activities. WHAT THIS ARTICLE ADDS The PSEQ-H measures how young children's sensory environments influence their participation at home. The measure can be used to plan and evaluate occupational therapy interventions that aim to reduce sensory processing-related barriers to children's completion of developmentally salient activities.

In some cases, the sensory symptoms are attributed to psychopathology or negative emotionality. Developing sound tools for examining various dimensions of sensory overresponsivity in adults, particularly sensitivity versus habituation, can more precisely guide scientific and intervention efforts. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the psychometric properties, content validity, internal reliability, and construct validity of the new Sensory Habituation Questionnaire. DESIGN A Classical Test Theory approach and a multitrait-multimethod matrix was used to evaluate the questionnaire's psychometric properties. PARTICIPANTS A nonclinical sample of 160 adults ages 18-65 yr (mean = 31.85, standard deviation = 10.72); 56.87% were female. MEASURES Participants completed the Sensory Habituation Questionnaire, Sensory Perception Quotient, Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile, and the Brief Symptom Inventory. RESULTS The Sensory Habituation Questionnaire had high internal reliability (α = .
